Dong Hyun Kim vs. T.J. Grant completes UFC 100

A bout between Dong Hyun Kim (11-0-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) and T.J. Grant (14-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC), who replaces Canadian Jonathan Goulet, has been added to UFC 100 and completes the July 11 fight card.

The UFC today announced the booking, which takes place on the night’s preliminary card. The pay-per-view event takes place at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.

Grant, who was recently pulled from Saturday’s card for The Ultimate Fighter 9 Finale when opponent Rory Markham suffered an injury, replaces Goulet, who suffered a dislocated shoulder during a recent training session.

So, it’s a matter of one Canadian replacing another.

Kim, a fourth-degree judo black belt, returns to action for the first time since January, when he suffered a lackluster split-decision loss to Karo Parisyan at UFC 94. However, after Parisyan tested positive for banned painkillers, the Nevada State Athletic Commission overturned the victory and ruled the bout a no-contest.

The still-unbeaten Kim is now 2-0 in the UFC with a TKO of Jason Tan and split-decision win over Matt Brown, both in 2008.

Grant, meanwhile, looks to build off his April split-decision win over Ryo Chonan at UFC 97. The bout marked the Brazilian jiu-jitsu purple belt’s UFC debut and extended his current win streak to five straight fights, which included wins over UFC vets Chad Reiner and Forrest Petz in Canadian organizations.
